-
Garden Room Design and Build
One team from first sketch to the last coat of paint. We adapt a base design to your plot, dig the footings, build it, finish it and tidy up behind us.
-
Garden Offices and Studios
A proper working room: insulated, quiet, warm through a February gale, and lit for long days at a desk or an easel. A world away from the kitchen table.
-
Garden Annexes and Guest Rooms
Somewhere for a parent, a grown-up child or a long weekend of visitors. Separate front door, room for a bed, a shower room and a kettle, warm through winter.
-
Pool Houses and Games Rooms
Wet feet, cue chalk and a serve that misses. Rooms built to take proper use, with hard-wearing floors, ventilation that copes with pool humidity and a changing corner by the door.
-
Groundworks, Drainage and Landscaping
The part nobody photographs. Level bases, drainage that copes with Exmoor rain, and the paths, steps and planting that make the room look like it grew there.
-
Interior Fit-Out, Flooring and Decorating
Where a garden room stops looking like a garden room. Joinery, flooring, plasterwork and paint finished to the standard you would expect indoors.
-
Garage and Outbuilding Conversions
Stone outbuildings and cold garages turned into rooms that hold heat. Insulation, floors, openings and finishes done properly, keeping what is worth keeping.

Frequently asked questions
01Will I need planning permission for a garden room?
Often not: many garden rooms sit within permitted development. The plot decides it though, including height, how close you build to a boundary, and whether you are inside Exmoor National Park or a conservation area. We check where you stand at the survey stage and tell you straight.
02What does the fixed price actually cover?
One figure for the whole job: footings, drainage, the building, interior fit-out, flooring, decorating, and the landscaping that settles the room into the garden. We price per job once we have seen the ground and the access, and that price is agreed in writing before anyone starts digging.
03Can the room have power, heating and water?
Yes, and it is worth deciding early, because cable and pipe routes affect where the base sits. The building is designed around its services and the ducting goes in during groundworks. Certified electrical and plumbing connections are left to the trades qualified to sign them off.
04Will it be comfortable to use in winter?
That is the whole reason we build to house standard. Insulation, careful detailing where junctions meet, and a weathering specification chosen for driven rain off the moor and salt air nearer the coast. A garden office you can still work in during a February gale.
05What state will the garden be in while you work?
Groundworks are messy for a while, so we plan around it. Access routes across lawn get protected where they can be, spoil and offcuts go out with us as we go, and the ground around the finished room is made good, levelled and planted as part of the job.
